     世界一流酒店品牌林立的大上海，不一定她是您的首选。可当我们以“务实”的消费者心态走近她时，却被她的“内在”所倾倒。她就是上海古象大酒店，一座27层的豪华型国际大酒店，矗立在上海大都市的中心地段，由豪生酒店管理集团管理。

     选择理由一：您希望入住市中心的酒店，出行方便

    酒店一步之遥即是久负盛名的中华第一街——南京路步行街。向西徒步五分钟可至上海人民广场，参观雄伟壮观的上海博物馆，金壁辉煌的上海大剧院。向东步行十分钟就可到达闻名中外的外滩，饱览上海万国建筑群的悠久历史，欣赏夜上海的美景。

     选择理由二：您希望入住有品质的酒店

   酒店的客房均配以实木家具樱桃木帖面，气派典雅，中西合璧，贵气逼人。行政酒廊更是把这种氛围发挥到了极致，房顶特高，抬头望见极少在酒店找得到的五彩玻璃和欧式水晶大吊灯，让人仿佛进入了上海二三十年代的金粉世家。

     选择理由三：您希望入住细致入微的酒店

   在客房中，我们欣喜地发现了其西服托架的不平常处，它附带着可以直接熨烫西裤的功能！这对于惜时如金而又注重外表的您是再实用不过了。

     选择理由四：您希望入住价格适中的酒店

      这个酒店适合以舒适第一，品牌第二来选择商务酒店的中高端人士，商务合同价也会让您满意。相信您在看了我们的这期报道后会由心动变为行动。

She might not be the first one on your list of international top hotels in Shanghai. But when you approach her with a “practical” consumer mind, you will be attracted by her “inner beauty”. She is Howard Johnson Plaza Hotel Shanghai, a 27-floor international luxury hotel standing in the center of Shanghai and managed by Howard Johnson Group. 

Reason One: Convenient Transportation in the Center of Shanghai

Just a step away from the famous pedestrian street Nanjing Road, the hotel is ideally located in the heart of downtown Shanghai. Five minutes’ away to the west is the People’s Square, home to the magnificent Shanghai Museum and Grand Theatre. A ten minutes’ stroll to the east and you are on the Bund, the center of Old Shanghai with its foreign architecture and sparkling night life.  

Reason Two: A Hotel with Refined Taste

All the rooms are furnished with wooden furniture with a mixed Chinese and western style. An elegant taste is exerted to the extreme in Howard Johnson Club Floor Lounge. Here, you can find an unusually high ceiling, stained glasses and European crystal chandelier rare to be found in hotels. It feels as if you have stepped into a wealthy Shanghai family in the 1920s.  

Reason Three: Personal Care and Services

We are delighted to find the special feature of the suit hanger in the room. It can be used to iron trousers directly! This setting is very practical for those business travelers who have little time but care about appearance. 

Reason Four: A Moderate Price

This hotel is ideal for middle and high class business travelers who choose hotels mainly for comfort instead of brand. The business contract rate is also satisfying. We believe that after reading this review, you will be tempted to take actions.
